Zoom Podtrak P4NEXT

Zoom PodTrak P4next Podcast Recorder

Take your podcast production to the next level with the Zoom PodTrak P4next. Designed for creators who want polished, broadcast-style audio without a complicated setup, this compact recorder combines flexible multitrack recording with smart processing tools that help your voices sound clean, rich, and consistent.

With four XLR inputs and support for up to five people in a single session, the P4next is ready for interviews, panel discussions, and remote guests. Built-in AI noise reduction helps reduce distracting background sounds, while the Tone function adds EQ, de-essing, and warmth to give voices extra clarity and presence. A built-in compressor keeps levels under control, helping sudden laughs, shouts, and whispers sit naturally in the mix.

The P4next is made for recording anywhere. Power it with two AA batteries or via USB using a power bank, bus power, or a wall adapter. Connect guests through USB, Bluetooth, or the TRRS input, and rely on the mix-minus feature to minimize echo and feedback automatically. Four headphone outputs with individual volume control make it easy for everyone to monitor comfortably. You can also connect it to a phone and capture high-quality audio directly into your video workflow.
